Me three...its different but not just yet...I already figger I'll be three wheels in the future anyways, just not sure in which direction,,,Maybe a loaded GW trike, that is if I can shake the HD bug.... saw another 3 wheeler but don't remember the name, it was large and set up lke a car, The two up front is suppposed to be the most stable and controllable in the curves but its too BMW like, you know, foriegn looking. Mamma would probably lke it,,shes been bugging me for a 3 wheeler...lol,too short for two !

Me and the wife have been mauling over getting the SPYDER TOURING EDITION. I'm no wimp but to be honest I don't really care to balance a bike at lights and stop & go traffic with a passenger. Now if I'm buying a bike that I will only be riding by myself, I would probably get a 2 wheel model. The wife is afraid to ride on 2 wheel models.

And if you're looking for something cool too, and much faster, take a look at the T-REX.

The first time I saw one, I kind of marveled at how it's set up more like a snowmobile than a regular bike. The two wheels out front should actually be quite stable. I would also think that hitting the odd pothole would be less of a worry than with a regular bike.

Less of a worry to hit a pothole, but a lot harder to avoid them. Since you have 3 wheels covering the span, a lot harder to just pass over it.

I don't know what it is called but have you seen the roll caged 2 seater version of the same vehicle? I did and it had a matching trailer it was towing... I passed people to catch up to that thing just to see it and and wonder how much it costs. lol

I think it is the T-rex that someone mentioned earlier, I looked it up and seems to be what you were looking for. It's not the same vehicle and made by different companies etc, it just happens to use a similar 3 wheels setup.
